The Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, more commonly known as Historic St. Mary's Church (German: St. Marien-Kirche), is a Roman Catholic church located in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1741, throughout most of its history, the church served the German-speaking Catholics of Lancaster. The parish has had three church buildings over the course of its existence, with the current Gothic Revival brick church being completed in 1854. In June 1741, two German-speaking Jesuits from Maryland arrived in Lancaster, Pennsylvania. They purchased land and built a small log chapel for the German population of Lancaster, giving the mission church the name of St. John Nepomucene. The church operated alongside the many other Christian denominations in Lancaster until one night in December 1760, when the chapel was lit ablaze. The chief burgess (city council chairman) offered a reward for information about the perpetrator, but none was ever found. More information...
